Sandy & Roberto - 30 Year Vow Renewal at the Maola at Riverside - New Bern NC Photographer

Ya’ll, let’s talk about Saturday. Will and I had the incredible opportunity to celebrate with Sandy and Roberto as they marked an amazing milestone in their marriage… 30 years together. What better way to celebrate than to throw a party for their friends and family. Week after week, I get an outsider’s view of the beauty of weddings. I love weddings right down to my core, but now I have another favorite - vow renewals. Seriously, as I looked around on Saturday, all I saw was love. Sandy and Roberto were surrounded by their children, their grandchildren, loving family, and close friends. And they were all there with joy-filled hearts as they celebrated the dynamic couple. Sandy and Roberto live busy lives. They run not one, but two popular restaurants in New Bern. They are proud parents of 5 children and the most adorable, lively grandchildren. But for one day, their worlds slowed down and they celebrated the beautiful life they have built together. They soaked up the joy. The laughter. The fellowship. Sandy was absolutely stunning, and Roberto was as handsome as they come. We hope you’ll enjoy some of our favorite shots from the big day! We hope it’s a good tease as we edit away the rest of their vow renewal images and video footage.
